You can also refill them yourself. That's what the refurbished ones
are. If you google you'll find videos and other resources that show
how it's done. Typically all you need is the toner powder, a vacuum
and a screwdriver. Essentially it's vacuuming the remaining old stuff
out, partially disassmeblying it to wipe it clean, moving the
reset gear back to the full position, putting it back together, then
pouring the new toner in. It comes in a squirt, ketchup kind of bottle,
so that's easy.
 
It would probably take an hour to do it the first time, probably 6X that
rate if you were doing one after the other. Been awhile since I did one
and I'd have to revisit the instructions again to get through the first one.
 
Doing your own is by far the least expensive option.

Sounds like an excellent idea, but I do so little printing that the cost
of the remanufactured cartridge is negligible.
